The Shutterbug Posted January 26, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Despite being in Dublin more times than I can remember ;) this is something we are not sure of and google is not being our friend :confused: A while off yet, we are sailing from Dublin next year on Celebrity Reflection and we are planning to drive down from Belfast, does anyone know if there are parking facilities available at the port? Any locals know if there is anymore word on the possible terminal being built at Dun Laoghaire? Thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare VMax1700 Posted January 26, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Got these by googling 'long term parking Dublin Port'. http://www.dublinport.ie/tourism/getting-around/ go to the bottom of the page and it mentions parking. or.... http://www.dublinport.ie/tourism/cruise-dublin/ again if you go to the end of the page it offers car parking. Unfortunately the link isn't working, but perhaps a tweet to the Port Authority would elicit a response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't find that for looking :') €50 a week, might be better getting the bus from Belfast or a lift down the road instead :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shutterbug Posted January 26, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Did you consider taking the train down? We might end up doing that or the bus, used the new Dublin Coach before Christmas £16 return and great service. Dropped at Custom House, so wouldn't be far in a taxi.

Dublin Port would be handier for us, so fingers crossed the Dun Laoghaire locals get their wish ;) They've been talking about a proper cruise terminal in Belfast for years, they need to put something better in place up here.

Rare VMax1700 Posted January 26, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I'm originally from Belfast so would enjoy a cruise from there. Used to enjoy taking the bike for a blast down the Sydenham bypass and then on to Bangor and the 'Dee! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to enjoy taking the bike for a blast down the Sydenham bypass and then on to Bangor and the 'Dee! ;) Would be fab if we could board from here some day! We are 'northies' - we are by the lough so we love going down and seeing the ships sail in and out. I work at the docks too so it's a bit strange to see them sailing past the office window at times LOL. Thanks for your replies :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishComet Posted January 28, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Dun Laoghaire will not happen as a cruise terminal.(Sadly) Personally, I think it would have had great potential. But the people that make these decisions don't seem to have the vision to see beyond the end of their nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
